The End of Half Term

We have just had a lovely week off work together but Stephen is back to the grindstone tomorrow. We have tried to make the most of relaxing to the max before the baby arrives and we lose the luxury of a child-free week to do with as we wish.

Stephen has ripped up all the carpet in the bathroom and made a start on laying down the tiles. He has all the hard ones left... around the corners, toilet and sink! The bathroom looks a bit like a bomb has hit it but it has been promised to me that it will be finished before baby arrives so I can take hope in that! The floor looks so nice though that it casts the kitchen floor in a really bad light and I can't wait until that is done too... And it would be nice to get rid of the carpet downstairs to lay laminate if the floor boards aren't nice enough... And it would be nice if the walls were painted fresh, and the railing painted and the base boards painted, and the... Stephen?

We are both looking forward to the 'nesting' bit you apparently go through just before you give birth!

I think your house will be a lovely family place whatever the flooring is like! We will paint some walls when we come next - only two months to wait.
